17 incredible costumes from the Hyper Japan cosplay catwalk

From the rather terrifying Executioner from Resident Evil to the elegant Hana from Gate 7, and, er, even Flufflepuff from Flufflepuff Tales, here are 17 incredible home-made cosplay outfits from the Hyper Japan cosplay catwalk.

Yesterday we headed down to Hyper Japan, and in between stuffing our faces with sushi and buying super-cute trinkets we have absolutely no use for, we checked out the cosplay catwalk. And boy are we glad we did.

Seventeen participants took to the stage to show off their home-made cosplay outfits, and they were nothing short of spectacular.

Check them out below, we’ll sure you’ll agree, they’re pretty WOW.
